内容説明

Providing an overview of the historical and epistemological contexts within which Postmodernism has developed, this book aims to establish its relevance to contemporary culture. Wakefield maps out the key positions within the debate, offering a critical review of the principle protagonists: Barthes, Baudrillard, Deleuze and Guattari, Derrida, Foucault, Huyssen, Jameson and Lacan. He takes the contemporary debate back to linguistics, media studies, literary analysis, deconstruction and psychoanalysis. He looks at it through specific modern cultural phenomena such as Disneyworld, "The Sunday Sport" and Acid House. Neville Wakefield's thesis on cultural history which he wrote at the Royal College of Art was awarded the Penguin Book Prize for the best thesis of 1988.

内容説明

The postmodernist debate is characterized by conceptual complexity, obscurity and textual inaccessibility. Neville Wakefield's critique takes postmodernism back to its roots; in linguistics, media studies, literary theory and psychoanalysis. Moreover, the complex theory is applied to contemporary cultural issues which will be familiar to all - from Disneyworld to the Sunday Sport and Acid House.
